Subject:
How Big Business Works From The Top
If you like a bit of intrigue and how a Board Of Directors works then you will like this. The man/woman on the shop floor often hear rumours of takeovers etc, but the bosses at the top can sometimes prevent this if they really want or they can be plain greedy, and sell the working man/ woman out to the highest bidder for their own gain at the cost of the workers, but; with this drama it appears we have a decent Board of Directors, I did enjoy this so much as I have had the opportunity at my own work place to look in from the outside.
